Please welcome unique Apache web server emulation solution for Microsoft IIS - Helicon Ape! (Ape stands for Apache emulator)
Helicon Ape beta is a comprehensive product that emulates Apache execution environment on Microsoft IIS. It literally implements Apache configuration model (like .htaccess and httpd.conf files) and most demanded Apache modules in a single IIS add-on, not only making IIS compatible with Apache, but also extending its functionality by a number of highly essential features.
Currently implemented modules are: mod_auth_basic, mod_auth_digest, mod_authn_anon, mod_authn_default, mod_authn_file, mod_authz_default, mod_authz_groupfile, mod_authz_host, mod_authz_user, mod_core, mod_env, mod_expires, mod_headers, mod_proxy, mod_rewrite, mod_setenvif, mod_so.
You can check complete list of implemented modules in the compatibility chart and this list is going to grow with new builds.
